‎(Goldsmith, Oliver); Bloomfield, Joseph; Nash, Richard.‎

‎THE LIFE OF RICHARD NASH, OF BATH, ESQ; Extracted Principally From His Original Papers.‎

‎pp. vi, 234 (4)["Books just Published by J. Newbery. and W. Frederick, Bath"] + Engraved frontis portrait of Nash by Anthony Walker after William Hoare. 8vo. Age stained. Contemporary full leather binding, boards detached. Mildly XLib. NOTE: With two autograph ownerships of: Joseph Bloomfield (1753-1823), New Jersey lawyer, Revolutionary War soldier, judge, and political leader. He and his wife supported a variety of social causes, with Joseph serving as president of the first Society for the Abolition of Slavery, organized in Burlington, NJ in 1783. In 1789, he donated a small plot of land to house the Library Company of Burlington. Bloomfield served as Mayor of Burlington from 1795 to 1800, and he went on to serve as Governor of New Jersey from 1801 to 1802 and 1803 to 1812, then returned to military service as a Brigadier General in the War of 1812. After the war, he finished his political career as a U.S. Congressional Representative from 1817 to 1821. Biography of the undisputed King of Bath, which Newbery commissioned to one of his favorite writers, Oliver Goldsmith (though he goes unmentioned in this first edition). Richard Nash (1674-1762), English dandy, better known as "Beau Nash," was born at Swansea. He was descended from an old family of good position, but his father from straitened means had become partner in a glass business. Young Nash was educated at Carmarthen Grammar school and at Jesus College, Oxford. He obtained a commission in the army, which, however, he soon exchanged for the study of law at the Temple. Here among "wits and men of pleasure" he came to be accepted as an authority in regard to dress, manners and style. When the members of the Inns of Court entertained William III after his accession, Nash was chosen to conduct the pageant at the Middle Temple. This duty he performed so much to the satisfaction of the king that he was offered knighthood, but he declined the honor, unless accompanied by a pension. As the king did not take the hint, Nash found it necessary to turn gamester. The pursuit of his calling led him in 1705 to Bath, where he had the good fortune almost immediately to succeed Captain Webster as master of the ceremonies. His qualifications for such a position were unique, and under his authority reforms were introduced which rapidly secured to Bath a leading position as a fashionable watering-place. He drew up a new code of rules for the regulation of balls and assemblies, abolished the habit of wearing swords in places of public amusement and brought duelling into disrepute, induced gentlemen to adopt shoes and stockings in parades and assemblies instead of boots, reduced refractory chairmen to submission and civility, and introduced a tariff for lodgings. Through his exertions a handsome assembly-room was also erected, and the streets and public buildings were greatly improved. Nash adopted an outward state corresponding to his nominal dignity. He wore an immense white hat as a sign of office, and a dress adorned with rich embroidery, and drove in a chariot with six greys, laced lackeys and French horns. When the act of parliament against gambling was passed in 1745, he was deprived of an easy though uncertain means of subsistence, but the corporation afterwards granted him a pension of six score guineas a year, which, with the sale of his snuff-boxes and other trinkets, enabled him to support a certain faded splendour till his death. He was honored with a public funeral at the expense of the town. Notwithstanding his vanity and impertinence, the tact, energy and superficial cleverness of Nash won him the patronage and notice of the great. He was a man of strong personality, and considerably more able than Beau Brummell, whose prototype he was. First edition with all of the correct points. Rothschild 1022; Tinker 1093. The early American ownership adds substantial interest to this curious book. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! W144‎

‎(GRANT, Ulysses S.)‎

‎Galena and Its Lead Mines‎

‎N.p.: N.p. n.y. Hardcover. Small 4to. Full green calf with gilt spine lettering. Pp. 681-696 rectos only. 12 steel engravings 1 map. Very good. Mildly edgeworn with spine and binding edges irregularlysunned to golden brown. Bibliographically cryptic but clearly relatively recent i.e. post-WW2 facsimile reprint of this 16-page extract from the May 1866 issue of "Harper's New Monthly Magazine" Vol. XXXII No. CXCII -- an article that follows up on U.S. Grant's postwar fame profiling the famed lead mining town in northwest Illinois that had become his home just prior to the Civil War. Front wrapper engraving depicts Galena's Main Street bulging with people assembled to hear the returning hero. A massive banner spans the street proclaiming "Hail to the Chief Who in Triumph Advances." Though an extract it is self-contained and sought after in its own right. This undated reprint circa 1970 is printed on an off-white stock artificially age toned to lend it a period feel. It's also slightly enlarged from the original. Scarce. N.p. hardcover‎

Color lithograph front cover illustration depicts an ornate Victorian parlor with portly older U.S. Grant at right and former Senator Roscoe Conkling at left.

Caption below reads: "POLITICAL POLITENESS. / GRANT. You take it. CONKLING. No! No! You." Usual elaborate Judge masthead. Editorials on verso include the following commentary: "There is something truly affecting in the spectacle of these two old stand-bys of the Republican party. standing punctiliously aside for each other and gracefully waiving the way to the Senate. unknown‎

‎Erstausgabe. Seltene Chronik der Statt St. Gallen, mit umfangreichem Register, illustriert mit Kupfertitel und einer schönen gefalt. gestoch. Panorama-Ansicht der Stadt. “Seine Arbeit erstreckt sich bis 1683. ... sie verdient theils wegen der Geschichte selbst, teils wegen der Beschreibung der Stadt und deren Regierungsform, nicht wenig Achtung. In der Geschichte findet man viel merkwürdiges, besonders von den Zeiten der Glaubensverbesserung, und hauptsächlich von den Wiedertäufern in den Jahren 1525 und 1526, und von der Bibliothek wird auch viel Lesenswürdiges beygebracht” (Haller).Teil 2 enthält die mit gestochenem Porträt illustrierte Biographie Joachim von Watts (gen. Vadianus) (1484-1551). Er wurde 1526 erstmals Bürgermeister der Stadt und von da an bis zu seinem Tode war er neunmal regierender Bürgermeister, Altbürgermeister und Reichsvogt. Von Watt “griff die politische und geistige Leitung bei der Vorbereitung und Einführung der Reformation und übernahm die Auseinandersetzung mit den Wiedertäufern, die Begründung der st. gall. evangelischen Kirche und den Versuch der Säkularisation des Klosters” (HBLS). “Hier ist eine ziemlich umständliche Lebensbeschreibung dieses Mannes, die vollständiger und zuverlässiger ist, als alles was vor und nachhero über ihn ist geschrieben worden. ...” Lonchamp 1389; Barth 20216; Haller IV/869 und II/1594; HBLS VII/429 (von Watt) IV/67, Nr. 3 Haltmeyer, und IV/302, H.d Nr. 4 (Huber).
